5/5 from 63 reviews
Photo of Ctrl Alt Repeat Ctrl Alt Repeat "I saw this band last night at the Port House in Stourport and honestly, they’re the best live band I’ve seen in a long time. From the first song to the last, they absolutely nailed it. The energy in the room was amazing — you could tell they weren’t just playing songs, they were putting on a proper show. The vocals were spot on and the setlist was perfect for the crowd. Every song had people singing along, dancing, or filming because it was just that good 🤘🎸 🥁" Based in Birmingham, England (22 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) 18th March 2026 Diane Corkin Photo of House of Chords House of Chords "We had a fantastic day and the evening was excellent. Thank you so much for making it all so easy for us, from talking beforehand we knew we were in good hands. Everyone made a point to tell us how brilliant you were, the songs you played appealed to all and got everyone up dancing. You know yourselves that we didn’t want you to finish!! We couldn’t recommend you highly enough: totally professional, laid back and with a heap of talent. Thank you for making our night truly memorable! (10 / 10)" Based in Birmingham, England (22 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Adam & Martha CoopeR - Wedding Photo of Playlisters Playlisters "A fantastic and talented group of guys! They had everyone up on the dance floor and were an absolute pleasure to have. I would highly recommend." Based in Birmingham, England (22 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Jim S - Birthday Party Photo of The Haze The Haze "Sincere thanks to yourselves at Live Wedding Music and the band The Glory. What an amazing evening. The lads were superb, very polite and charming fellas, and the live sets were awesome. Plenty for all age groups to enjoy, and it was just a brilliant night” John Walton *****" Based in Birmingham, England (22 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) John Walton - Wedding Dec 2019 Photo of The River Dogs The River Dogs "They played for my wedding at the end of May in Pembrokeshire in wales! They were fantastic - I couldn’t have asked for more! Great songs had everyone dancing! The band were far better live than on the video I saw before hand excellent guest reviews back to me about them! Spot on!! Thanks again" Based in Birmingham, England (22 miles from Stratford-upon-Avon) Rebecca - Private Wedding Photo of Taylormade Live Band Taylormade Live Band "Well, what can I say about Taylormade? They performed at our wedding two weeks ago and they were simply fantastic! Carley and Matt performed two sets at our wedding and their beautiful acoustic sets made our wedding day that something extra special. Not only did they learn and perform a new song for our first dance but performed our requests in their setlists. As well as being a very talented couple, they were also very accommodating when we asked them to perform two longer sets rather than three shorter ones. They have a professional but friendly attitude and their easy-going nature made them a pleasure to work with. We had so many comments from our guests saying how beautiful the music was. Our one disappointment was that we couldn’t just sit and listen to them rather than circulate and speak to our guests! We would strongly recommend them to anyone considering hiring them for any occasion. Carley and Matt thank you for making our day extra special!"

Frequently asked questions

Pricing for indie bands ranges from £110 to £1,600+, with an average of £700. Rates depend on the number of band members, performance length and the equipment supplied. Indie bands range from stripped-back acoustic outfits to full electric line-ups, so the size and style of the act is the primary factor in cost.

The indie bands for hire perform indie rock, indie pop, alternative and guitar-driven music covering both classic indie anthems and modern indie hits. Many bands have a distinctive sound that brings an authentic live music atmosphere to events.

Hiring indie bands is a popular choice for weddings, birthday parties, bar and pub events, corporate parties and festivals. Indie music appeals to audiences who want something more distinctive than mainstream pop and rock cover bands.

Many indie bands play a mix of well-known indie covers and their own original material. Some bands focus entirely on covers of popular indie songs, while others are original artists who also take cover requests. It is a good idea to check each band's profile for their repertoire.

Wedding bookings are common, and many acts build a set that stays quieter during the meal before moving to a full electric performance later in the evening. Most will learn a first dance song given a few weeks' notice. Couples who want the same sound during the ceremony usually book a stripped-back acoustic line-up of the same act.

Four or five players is the most common shape, usually vocals, guitar, bass and drums, with keys added where the material calls for it. Three-piece acts work well in smaller rooms and cost less to book. Larger line-ups adding brass or extra vocals are available where the stage and the budget allow.

Most are self-contained for pub, bar and small function work, bringing a PA suited to the room and basic stage lighting. Larger venues, festival stages and outdoor bookings usually need production supplied separately. Giving the act the room size and whether a house system is available lets them judge what to bring.

Yes, either add suppliers to your favourites and contact them all at once, or use the find a supplier wizard.

Booking as early as possible increases the chance of securing your supplier's availability on your event date, particularly during busy times of the year. However, many suppliers also accept last minute bookings, and we have successfully arranged bookings for clients with just a few hours' notice.

Contact the supplier you are interested in booking by clicking "Contact Now" on their listing. Discuss your requirements using our messaging system or join a video meeting (like a Zoom-call) to speak face-to-face. Once you are ready to confirm your booking, simply ask the supplier to send you a contract, which you can agree to online, or request amendments. Once you agree to the contract you will be asked to pay a 10% booking fee to confirm the booking, with the balance payable directly to the supplier by the due date you've agreed on.
